    I'm 6" 3" and weigh 280 pounds.

    I was amazed at how roomy the Mini was the first time I saw it, and the new Beetle just seems cavernous!

    Do you think a 5 footer can't reach the controls? Don't worry. The seats adjust just fine!

    So long as that 5ft person can drive, why not?

    Cars are made to fit a huge range of human frames. I'm always amazed when I see 4'10" people stepping out big Mercedes or a 6'6" man getting out an original Mini.

    Yes, maybe if you where 6ft you would have to tilt you head to the side but you can at 5ft
